I am not a very social person I, I don’t have a lot of real life friends. In general, I prefer being alone most of the time, which means that I spend most of my free time on the computer, either playing video games, watching videos or looking at social media. A good example of how I socialise is Wade in the text ‘Ready Player One’. Wade is a shy, awkward kid who has spent most of his childhood inside the OASIS. In real life he doesn’t have friends, but in the OASIS he feels good, he doesn’t feel any pressure. In addition, his only friend is on the internet. Even though I have friends in real life, I still prefer socialising on the internet, in my opinion it is much easier to talk with people on different social medias or games, also it’s not as difficult to find people with the same interests in video games as it is in real life. Just like Wade, I log on different games every day and I feel happy, because I see people that I’ve been friends with for years, and if I feel sad or lonely I can just talk to any one of them and I can be sure that every single one of them will talk with me. Another example of how I socialise in my daily …show more content…
And then I got into third grade, I was talking with some of my friends in the classroom when I heard the other boys talk about a game online. They were showing each other pictures of their avatars, they were talking about the different quests they had and I became curious about it. After a couple of days, I managed to find the game and I started playing, but I realised that everything was in English. The game was very interesting for me and I wanted to learn English because it would have made everything more simple. After that day I started paying attention in class, but I still wasn’t learning as much as I wanted to, the teachers just couldn’t keep my
It all depends on what you mean by social, doesn’t it? Social to me means talking to you about things like
"I'm antisocial, they say. I don't mix. It's so strange. I'm very social indeed. It all depends on what you mean by social, doesn't it?
To further convince the reader, Ludden uses a study referenced in a journal by the credible Duke University psychologist, Jenna Clark. The study addresses college students and how the more Facebook friends that freshman had, the less socially adjusted they felt, whereas with seniors, the more Facebook friends they had, the more socially adjusted they felt (Ludden). This was due to a majority of the freshmans' friends being friends from high school or back home, whereas most of the seniors' friends were friends that they had made in college, therefore they were more connected with them because they interacted with them both online and in person. This study makes it easier to understand how the effect that social media has on you fully depends on your use of it. It makes sense that one would feel isolated and less connected to their environment when they are spending their free time connecting with those who aren’t around them.
The staff weren’t listening to me. I wouldn’t attend class because I couldn’t learn as quickly as others or keep anything in my head. It was difficult

Political socialization is a life time process by people in which they form their own ideas and beliefs of politics and acquire political values. My political socialization was influenced by my family. However, the mass media and my future educational achievements and financial goals had created an impact on my political socialization. My political socialization is that my belief understanding of politics came from the time when I was a young teenager. It was when my family had taught me about understanding politics and what the meaning of it is.

I practiced learning and using it from a very young age. As I got older, my parents decided to transfer me to an international school where I started to learn English as my second language. The new school environment transformed and gave me a passion to learn another language, and this was a strong foundation that helped me to make the decision of pursuing a degree in the United States 6 years
We live in age of social media, we have built expansive social networks online, yet the depths of our networks offline have decreased. It seems that technology has made it easier to stay in contact while keeping distance, more and more people find themselves feeling isolated and never experiencing real contact with others. It has made us more isolated and feeling alone. According to studies, those who report feeling most alone, are the people who use social media the most, young people aged under 35.
Stoll also adds, “Where once people like Steve would have … slowly learned how to deal with people, today they are able to turn to the Internet for solace and escape.” Spending long periods of time alone, becoming out of the habit of talking to and interacting with people face to face can create or worsen pre-existing cases of social anxiety, and is detrimental to developing basic social
What people may not realize is I am very social through in-person interactions and I love meeting new people and making them laugh. If my presence on social media has taught me one thing, it’s do not judge a person’s character based on their online persona and activity. Sometimes, they are two completely different
Technology is getting bigger and bigger each day. With the advance of smart phones, tablets, and laptops it’s become much easier for people to keep in contact with their social media. People can easily stay in touch with friends all the time on Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, and Instagram and by texting. Many people are taking advantage of that opportunity and that seems like people are becoming more sociable but actually it is making people less sociable. People are spending too much time on their phones instead of having a face to face conversation.
Who am I? I am Quentina Burnett and I have been developed by socialization, to be able to fit within the society. Socialization is the process where an individual learns behavior, values, culture, and norms of the society to develop his or her personality to become a proficient person in the society (Keirns et al., 2016). This process starts in the early stage of a baby, to an adult, and continues until the individual dies. The process of socialization gives people and myself the basic social contact and social interaction needed to develop “self”.
First of all, my experience of learning English was a great process which took fifteen years as a Turkish native speaker. When I was seven years old, I started to learn English and I am able to learn languages. When I was five years old, I was watching cartoons in English and in my opinion it was so helpful for me to learning a new language. I have been learning English for fifteen years including my college life. I studied American Culture and Literature in Bilkent University.
